Position Specific Description
Turn Your Call Center Experience Into a High-Earning Sales Career
If you're successful in collections, debt recovery, outbound calling, customer retention, or another high-volume call center environment, you already have many of the skills it takes to succeed in sales.
You know how to pick up the phone. You know how to handle objections. You know how to have difficult conversations, negotiate, stay persistent, and work toward performance goals.
Now it's time to put those skills toward building your income and your career.
We're looking for competitive, motivated Inside Sales Representatives to join our Buffalo team. Previous energy sales experience is not required. We're looking for people who are comfortable on the phone, motivated by results, and ready to learn how to turn conversations into new business.
What Youll Do
Prospect and connect with potential business customers by phone
Generate new opportunities through consistent outbound activity
Identify customer needs and present solutions
Build relationships with business decision-makers
Handle questions and objections confidently
Follow up consistently and move opportunities through the sales process
Negotiate and close new business
Manage your pipeline and work toward monthly sales goals
Who Were Looking For
You could be a great fit if you have experience in:
Debt collections or recovery
High-volume outbound call centers
Customer retention
Financial services
Inside sales or telesales
Account management
Customer service with a strong performance or incentive component
Collections experience is especially valuable. Successful collectors develop many of the same skills we value in sales, including persistence, active listening, negotiation, objection handling, professionalism, and the ability to stay motivated in a results-driven environment.
Compensation & Earning Opportunity
We want high performers to have the ability to earn like high performers.
Base Salary: $45,000-$60,000, based on experience
Commission opportunity of up to $300,000 annually, paid monthly
Additional performance-based annual bonus opportunity
Strong earning potential for individuals who consistently perform at a high level
Why Make the Move From Collections to Sales?
You've already learned how to make the calls, handle rejection, negotiate, and perform in a metric-driven environment.
Instead of calling someone about money they owe, imagine using those same skills to win new customers, build a book of business, and significantly increase your earning potential.
If youre competitive, coachable, resilient, and motivated by the opportunity to grow your income based on your results, we want to talk to you.
Ready to turn your call center experience into a sales career? Apply today.
